Battlefield 4 PS4 & PS3 title updates rolling out today

One-hit kill bug finally fixed on Sony consoles.

New title updates for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 versions of Battlefield 4 are rolling out across Europe today, DICE has confirmed.

The patches fix the 'one-hit kill' bug which saw bullets dealing double damage, and re-enables audio during PS4 video captures. They also improve stability, reducing the chances of crashes under certain conditions.

For unknown reasons, however, the PS3 patch is not currently available in North America. DICE says it is aiming to release the patch in the territory "as soon as possible".

These Field Upgrades were previously deactivated as a workaround to this very frequent crash. With this fix in place we are now reactivating the Field Upgrades in question.

One-hit Kill Bug Fixed - Fixed the "one-hit kill" bug where damage from a single bullet sometimes was applied multiple times. This could lead to firefights where normal rifles sometimes dealt one-shot kills, which is not as designed.
